Hi, Im Oliver! I know what youre thinking: what does an 11-year-old kid know about the universe? Am I a famous scientist? No. Am I a super-genius? Not really.
Im just trying to figure out the usual stuff: new school, new friends, how to avoid my annoying sister. But theres one thing that DOES make sense: science! Outer space is totally my thing and I can tell you EVERYTHING you need to know about awesome stuff like:
- time-bending black holes
- how the Big Bang is like a fart
- aliens! (Well, there could be aliens.)
An absolute gem! Lincoln Peirce, author of the bestselling series BIG NATE.
A stellar confluence of comic episodes and cosmic information. In addition to brilliantly integrated comic moments surprising plot twists add narrative pizzazz to a serious raft of data about the universe. An irresistibly entertaining introduction to astrophysics. Kirkus starred review See more
